Every year there are around 5,000 people affected by Motor Neuron Disease (MND) in the UK. Right now, there is no cure. We’re striving to change that with the UK Motor Neuron Disease Research Institute (UK MND Research Institute), co-directed by the University’s Professor Christopher McDermott.



An inspiring morning hearing from the patients that drove the development of the institute, as well as Steve Barclay who has helped secure funds to accelerate our search for a cure. #mnd #UKMNDRI #ALS Patients United2EndMND National Institute for Health and Care Research
